Product description

This sleek globe exemplifies the best of MOVA's forward-thinking technology with the stylish design the company is known for. The MOVA 4.5 Inch Silver and Black Rotating Globe stands apart from its counterparts through its minimal yet striking color pattern. Forgoing the traditional colors of a map or atlas, this silver and black shaded globe adds contemporary flair to any room. The metallic landmasses shine when contrasted with the deep, slate ocean color. Location names are labeled in sharp fonts, and feature the opposite color of their respective backgrounds.

The daring and attractive design of this 4.5 inch world globe sits atop a three pronged clear acrylic base, measuring 7 inches tall. Without help from batteries or power cords, all this solar globe needs to rotate is ambient light. This spinning globe's mesmerizing movements is powered by all available light, both artificial and natural. Let yourself be enthralled by the MOVA 4.5 Inch Silver and Black Rotating Globe! The modern flavor of this handsome model makes it one of a kind. The acrylic base comes with the world globe.

How the MOVA Globe Works?
The MOVA Rotating Globe uses solar energy and the magnetism of Earth to power its smooth rotations. The solar cells within the unit create the globe’s slow and quiet movements from available room light, which means that it does not require batteries or power cords. MOVA took inspiration from Earth’s movements when designing these innovative products.

The MOVA globe is made up of an inner sphere that spins, surrounded by an outer shell that does not move. Between the two spheres is a crystal clear liquid that supports the inner globe in a nearly frictionless environment. The perfectly safe liquid keeps the two globes from ever touching, even at its north and south poles. The graphics of the map are printed on the inner sphere. The liquid separating the two objects magnifies the map onto the transparent outer shell.

A highly advanced drive mechanism within the globe propels its movements, operating on very low power. The mechanism is powered by the device’s solar cells, which use both natural and artificial light from the surrounding environment to create electrical energy. As most ambient light is blocked by the sphere, the solar cells have been carefully designed to produce low electrical energy from minimal light.

Still, another element is needed for the inner globe to rotate, as it rests in a virtually frictionless liquid. Like a compass, MOVA globes use the Earth’s magnetic field to provide torque for the inner sphere to push against, resulting in its slow but sustained motion. The models will work on almost any base as long as it does not contain iron, which can block Earth’s magnetic field.

The sleek, contemporary design of the MOVA Rotating Globe, combined with its innovative craftsmanship, make it a serene and stylish addition to a room. With its peaceful motion, the MOVA globe is a silent object of wonder on any surface.
